LONDON – The chair of the UK’s Environmental Audit Committee (EAC), Philip Dunne MP, has written to the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) Thérèse Coffey in frustration at the department’s inaction on key policies to reduce the impact of the fashion industry.
“In view of what appears to be endemic delay in making progress on important environmental policies, the committee has asked me to request, by return, a clear timetable giving the dates by when each of the documents listed in this letter are now expected to be issued,” Dunne’s letter said.
